Last week's releases

I know, I know - I'm a week behind on posting these. We were on vacation last week so at least I have a good excuse ;)

Title: Tempest Unleashed (Tempest #2)

Author: Tracy Deebs

Tempest Maguire is
happy with her decision to embrace her mermaid nature and live among her
mother’s clan within the ocean’s depths. Even though training to one
day ascend the throne for the aging mermaid queen is rigorous, she finds
refuge in the arms of Kona, the selkie who first opened her up to her
mermaid side. But when word comes that one of her brothers has been
gravely injured on land, Tempest immediately rushes to his side—which
also brings her back to her old flame, Mark. And in her absence, a
deadly battle begins raging at the hands of Tempest’s old nemesis, the
sea witch Tiamat. As the dangerous war erupts, Tempest’s two loves—Kona
and Mark, sea and land—will collide for the first time, both to protect
her and to force her to choose.

After a wild work-sponsored
Halloween party, entomologist Sam McLean wakes up with a spotty
memory—and a pointy set of fangs. Sam’s one-night stand wasn’t just
dressed as a vampire; she had the bite to match. Somehow,
Sam's unconscious body ends up at the OOPS office, where paranormal
crisis counselors Nina, Marty and Wanda give him the down-low on
accidentally becoming a creature of the night.

What he got was an eternity of trouble.

Dealing with a newbie like Sam is
no easy task, but things get even more crazy when Phoebe Reynolds—a
woman who claims to be Nina’s sister—storms into the office and causes a
catfight that ends when Phoebe is accidently bitten by Sam’s recently
formed fangs. Now, the OOPS girls have two fledgling vamps on their
hands, and their powers—and the attraction building between them—are
unlike anything they’ve seen before…

When a fifteen-year-old
girl is abducted by vampires, it’s up to U.S. Marshal Anita Blake to
find her. And when she does, she’s faced with something she’s never seen
before: a terrifyingly ordinary group of people—kids, grandparents,
soccer moms—all recently turned and willing to die to avoid serving a
master. And where there’s one martyr, there will be more…

But even vampires have monsters that they’re afraid of. And Anita is one of them…

Every witch has a
destined mate, an Eternal who will serve as her guardian and complete
her powers. Once the first of the coven has awakened, the witches must
race against time to join with their Eternals and protect the relics
that will prevent the destruction of the world....

Deidre
Sterling is tired of being used. Her mother, the President of the United
States, uses her as a prop for the television cameras. And men only
pursue her for political connections. Determined to stand for something,
Deidre throws herself into causes like the fight for witches’ rights,
but ends up stepping into the line of fire.

Finn has waited eight
centuries for his mate—united they will be a powerful weapon.
Unfortunately, she wants nothing to do with him. Even after gunfire
awakens her powers and a kiss from him engulfs them in flames, she
refuses to take the final step. But as the world burns and her duty
becomes clear, she realizes that some passions are worth paying the
ultimate price….

Betsy Taylor is
determined to change the future for herself and her loved ones, but her
actions could have life-shattering repercussions. That’s to be expected
when a friend returns from the dead, when your dear sister just happens
to be the Antichrist, and when your mother is the devil.

The Etherlin muses have long served as a source of divine inspiration.Now their world stands between the forces of Heaven and Hell.

As
his muse, Cerise propelled her musician boyfriend to the heights of
fame, but when he died under mysterious circumstances her powers
vanished. Now she’s plagued by disturbing half-formed memories of his
final night…until she meets Lysander who seems to hold the key to
restoring her memories and abilities.

Fallen archangel Lysander
is consumed by his quest for redemption until it leads him to the
captivating Cerise. Now his thirst for revenge is rivaled only by his
passion for the woman he can’t resist.

Bound by blood and stalked by a deadly enemy, will they pay the ultimate price for succumbing to their passion?

Amelia—still caught
between life and death—must fight for every moment of her relationship
with the human boy Joshua. They can hardly even kiss without Amelia
accidentally dematerializing. Looking for answers, they go to visit some
of Joshua’s Seer relatives in New Orleans. But even in a city so
famously steeped in the supernatural, Amelia ends up with more questions
than answers…and becomes increasingly convinced that she and Joshua can
never have a future together.Wandering through the French Quarter,
Amelia meets other in-between ghosts, and begins to seriously consider
joining them. And then she meets Gabrielle. Somehow, against impossible
odds, Gaby has found a way to live a sort of half-life...a half-life for
which Amelia would pay any price. Torn between two worlds, Amelia must
choose carefully, before the evil spirits of the netherworld choose for
her.

Since the beginning of time, the archangels have longed to know true love.

When
four female angels were created for the four archangels, Michael,
Gabriel, Uriel, and Azrael, a chaos spurred by jealousy erupted, and the
archesses were secreted away to Earth. The four favored archangels
followed, prompting a search that has lasted millennia…

For
hundreds of years, Gabriel has passed himself off as a common Scottish
villager. Few know he is the Messenger, a powerful archangel who has
secretly scoured the world for the only woman who can complete him. Now,
he’s shocked to discover the object of his desire in his own backyard.

Researching
her Ph.D. in the Outer Hebrides, Juliette Anderson has always been the
rational type—until she looks across a quaint pub into the silver eyes
of a stranger. He’s handsome. He’s intense. And he claims her with a
searing kiss on the spot.

Every instinct tells her to run. But
when a dark force rises, and the truth of her identity is revealed, she
must put her faith in the mysterious man who enflames her.

Imagine a city divided. A city where human and Fae magic rests
uneasily next to the vampire Blood and the shapeshifting Beasts. A city
where a fragile peace is brokered by a treaty that set the laws for all
four races… a treaty that is faltering day by day.

I didn’t plan on becoming a thief and a spy. But options
are limited for the half-breed daughter of a Fae lord. My father
abandoned me but at least I inherited some of his magic, and my skills
with charms and glamours mean that few are as good at uncovering secrets
others wish to hide. Right now the city has many secrets. And those who
seek them pay so well…

I never expected to stumble across a
Templar Knight in my part of the city. Guy DuCaine is sworn to duty and
honor and loyalty — all the things I’m not. I may have aroused more than
his suspicion but he belongs to the Order and the human world. So when
treachery and violence spill threaten both our kind, learning to trust
each other might be the only thing that saves us.

But even if a spy and a holy knight can work together, finding the key to peace is never going to be easy…

Centuries
ago, when their ship crashed to Earth, paranormals of all types settled
secretly into our world, quietly going about their business with humans
none the wiser. Self-ruling and careful to stay below humanity’s radar,
all is threatened when Valkyrie archaeologist Lorin Schlessinger and
her werewolf geologist partner Gabe Lupinsky in advertently draw evil
attention to Earth and its treasured natural resources.

As the
threat intensifies, Lorin and Gabe struggle to contain the chaos they’ve
unleashed, and to resist their explosive mutual attraction…
